A Vexod Question.

WASHINGTON, Feb 20 "A question
has arisen and has bean laid before the
President late this afternoon as TO his
power to appoint tn Inter. State Com
merce Commissioners after the adjourn
mept Of the Senate.
1t 10 held on one side that the power
conferred by the Constitution to Ill
vacancies which may happen during 3
vacation of the Senate does not cover
the right to appoint to D newly created
office which ID to be filed by aud with
the advice and consent TO the Senate
1t is understood that Senators Harris
and Pugh are among the number who
SO believe, and that Senator Pugh
called upon the President this after noon
to direct his attention to the matter.
On the other hand, 1t ID argued that q
vacancy "happens" as much by the act
of creation rs by the death or resigua-
zion OF an Incumbent, and there are be
lieved to be decisions b. Attorney
Generals covering the point, to the
effect that the President has the power
